Clear an RSA SecurID PIN
When a user forgets a SecurID PIN, you can clear the PIN so that the user can create a new one. When you clear a user’s PIN, the user can create a new PIN the next time the user authenticates.
For example, suppose a user has forgotten a PIN and calls for help. You verify the user’s identity and clear the PIN. You tell the user to enter just the tokencode when prompted for the passcode the next time user authenticates. After entering the tokencode, the user is prompted to create a new PIN for the user’s token.
You can clear PINs on any primary or replica instance.
